Positive experience, good guides but overstated description and too much time in transit
The guides Alex, Abdul and Aziz are great and fully support the experience. The upside : - the visit to the Medina itself, which couldn't be safely done without guidance, - the traditional lunch, - the attention and the explanations of the guides to the group. - the adaptation of the itinerary to catch up on delays at the customs The downside : - the description of the excursion, which overstates what we actually see and minimises the fact that on a 15+ hour excursion, 10 of those hours are just moving and waiting (bus, ferry, customs) for a 4-ish-hour visit in total - the timing of the bathroom breaks and the meal could be improved - the stop at the fragrance shop could have been shortened - little time to buy souvenirs - little delay in the morning for the pick up
Response from the operator: Hello, Thank you very much for taking the time to share such a detailed and balanced review of your experience. We’re really glad to hear that Alex, Abdul and Aziz made a positive impact and supported you throughout the journey—their dedication and care are truly appreciated. It’s great to know that you enjoyed the visit to the Medina, the traditional lunch and the explanations provided by our guides, as well as their flexibility in adapting the itinerary when needed. At the same time, we sincerely appreciate your constructive feedback. We understand your concerns regarding the duration of travel time compared to the time at the destination, as well as the organization of stops and overall timing. These are very important points, and we will review them carefully to improve both the clarity of our descriptions and the experience itself. Best regards,

Trip to Tetuan
Highlight the good work of the guides, Alex was super attentive and always willing that we were okay but Abdul leaves, without him the visit would not be the same and his assistant Asis also a 10 for them two
Response from the operator: Hola 😊 ¡Muchísimas gracias por tu reseña! Nos encanta leer comentarios como el tuyo y saber que disfrutaste tanto de la experiencia 🙌 Nos alegra especialmente que destaques la labor de nuestros guías. Alex estará encantado de saber que valoraste su atención y dedicación para que todo saliera perfecto 💛 Y qué decir de Abdul… ¡totalmente de acuerdo contigo! Su forma de transmitir y hacer la visita especial marca la diferencia ✨ También trasladaremos tus palabras a Asis, seguro que le hará muchísima ilusión recibir ese “10” 👏 Comentarios como el tuyo nos motivan a seguir dando lo mejor en cada tour. ¡Esperamos verte de nuevo muy pronto para seguir descubriendo juntos nuevos destinos! 🌍😄

Not for me
Very long day, our guide Alex was great, the trip itself was 18 hours start to finish, long border crossings bordering on the ridiculous, thats not the tours fault, thats moroccan customs, arrived in tetuan eventually to be led through town, through the medina to a restaurant,on the way to the restaurant the guides bought a few pieces of bread and a round of goats cheese, they just handed the bread out to people on the trip,then invited people to dip their fingers in the goats cheese, by the time the bread came to me it had been handled by several different people, with the obvious health implications and people literally dipping their fingers in the soft goats cheese, i said no, the restaurant itself was ok to look at, music, dancers, offered people a small can of coke or Fanta but then charged us €2 for it at the end of what was a very bland meal, luke warm bland soup, chicken and couscous which was bland and also just luke warm, the dancers and other entertainers were literally grabbing hold of my leg begging for tips on the way out of the restaurant, the rest of the day was a sales pitch with the Moroccan guides Abdul and aziz very much in on the sales in a pharmacy and a overpriced rug shop, towards the end of our time in tetuan Abdul found the need to shout at 2 young girls from the Netherlands because he said they kept going in shops in the medina and he had to drag them out, one girl said no, your wrong, this ignited him even more and shouted at them even more, as we were walking back to the coach aziz grabbed hold of my hand and was asking for tips, he wouldn't let go, I was going to give him one as he'd been generally ok until the aggressive begging for tips, but I said no, he didn't like it but then went on to harass someone else, Abdul was also trying to get my attention but after what I saw with the 2 girls there was no way he was getting a tip and I kept my hands in my pocket, swerved around him and jumped on the coach, it was a snapshot of morocco and confirmed to me that I would never go there again, I can't tell you how relieved I was to finally arrive back in spain
Response from the operator: Hello, and thank you for taking the time to share such a detailed description of your experience. We greatly appreciate feedback like yours, as it helps us better understand how the day unfolded from the customer's perspective. We are pleased to hear that Alex made a good impression on you as a guide during the trip. However, we are very sorry to read about the aspects of the day in Tetouan that you found uncomfortable. Unfortunately, border crossing times can be very unpredictable due to Moroccan customs procedures, and we understand how tiring such a long day of travel can be. We are particularly concerned about the situations you described regarding food handling, pressure to tip, and interactions with local guides. This is certainly not the experience we want our customers to have. We work with local partners in Morocco, and your feedback on the behavior you witnessed and the sales pressure at certain stops will be shared with them so they can review these aspects carefully. We will do our best to improve these areas for future travelers.

Comentarios como el tuyo nos motivan a seguir creando experiencias auténticas y bien organizadas para quienes quieren conocer el sur de España de una forma cómoda y enriquecedora. ✨ Ojalá podamos acompañarte de nuevo muy pronto en otra aventura. ¿Quizás la próxima vez descubriendo lugares como Ronda, el Caminito del Rey o Sevilla con nosotros? Siempre hay algo nuevo que explorar. 😊 ¡Gracias por viajar con nosotros! ✌️

Why this scores 52
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Tetouan Adventure : Guided Tour and Traditional Lunch from Malaga: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Malaga.
How much does Tetouan Adventure : Guided Tour and Traditional Lunch from Malaga cost?
+
Prices start at $166 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Malaga usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Tetouan Adventure : Guided Tour and Traditional Lunch from Malaga take?
+
Plan for about 18 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Malaga is not rushed.
Is Tetouan Adventure : Guided Tour and Traditional Lunch from Malaga worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 52 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (3.5/5 across 21 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most popular in Malaga, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Tetouan Adventure : Guided Tour and Traditional Lunch from Malaga?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Tetouan Adventure : Guided Tour and Traditional Lunch from Malaga suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 18-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Tetouan Adventure : Guided Tour and Traditional Lunch from Malaga?
+
Around 7 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Malaga can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Malaga and add a light layer if any part of the 18-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Tetouan Adventure : Guided Tour and Traditional Lunch from Malaga start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Malaga within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Malaga?
+
On Outty we rank every Malaga experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Malaga City Tour 2 Hours Monumental Segway Tour, Taste of Malaga Tour : Tapas, History and Local Customs, Go local for a day!. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Malaga?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Malaga?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
